The hobby circuit below uses an unusual method to generate about 12,000 volts with about 5uA of current. Two SCRs form two pulse generator circuits. The two SCRs discharge a 0.047uF a 400v capacitor ...

In this article, I'll show you how to build a simplistic circuit to generate negative ions. Negative ions have been known to contribute to fresher air, happier mood, and general health benefits.

[The LED Artist] often found a need for a relatively high voltage (100 to 200 Volt) but low current DC power supply, and it turns out that a small HV generator that uses a single AA cell only took ...

Applications ranging from consumer electronics to high-power energy-conversion systems leverage the benefits of dc-dc power converters in their designs. Among these, flyback converters are popular for ...

Research paper titled “CMOS Interface Circuits for High-Voltage Automotive Signals” from University of Parma and Silis s.r.l. “The acquisition of high-voltage signals from sensors and actuators in an ...

Littelfuse has introduced an optically isolated photovoltaic gate driver for mosfets and IGBTs. Essentially, photovoltaic gate drivers are opto-isolated relays without the internal output mosfets, ...

Everyone loves to play with electricity and plasma, and [Hyperspace Pirate] is no exception. Inspired by a couple of 40×20 N52 neodymium magnets he had kicking around, he decided to put together a ...
